1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-1R) axis drives cellular growth, survival and chemoresistance in colorectal cancer (CRC) by promoting proliferative signaling, anti-apoptotic effects and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Targeting the IGF-1R pathway is therefore a promising strategy, not only for overcoming drug resistance, but also for reducing migration and metastatic behavior related to EMT. The present study aimed to evaluate the potential of picropodophyllin (PPP), a selective IGF-1R inhibitor, to enhance the effects of oxaliplatin (OX) in HCT116 and OX-resistant HCT116-R cells. Cell viability was evaluated using a resazurin-based assay following 48-h combination treatment with OX at its IC
